An anonymous reader writes "Film Gimp, the most popular open source tool in feature motion picture work, has released its first Macintosh version. Film Gimp is now available for Mac OS X, Linux, and SGI Irix. Film Gimp is a frame-by-frame retouching tool used by motion picture studios as an alternative tool to Adobe Photoshop.

  1. This is not OS X by davids-world.com · · Score: 1, Troll
    OS X integrates Darwin and Aqua (and more). A OS X program has an Aqua interface. That's the main difference between an OS X application and a Linux program. Film GIMP seems to run under X Windows, which happens to run under OS X.

    If you apply the same logic, Quark Express is available as OS X application (as it runs unter Quark), and my 1995 file comparison utility égale is an OS X app, as it runs in an Atari TOS emulator (MagiCMac OSX). Wow, I could write programs for OS X way before it was released. Amazing!
